Briefly

Jacqui Byrne And the Long Way to New York Theater - The Village Voice
An actor, singer, and teaching artist based in New York has a biography marked by frequent movement across countries and citizenships. Training for acting is described as being built through experiences in classrooms with British accents, summer evenings in Bermuda, and a Swiss schoolyard where everyone was a foreigner. After completing theater studies at Dartmouth and earning an MFA in acting at Columbia, she brings that accumulated discipline into rehearsal. Her stage credits include both high-festival productions supported by industry and smaller works that are harder to market. Recent projects continue this mix, including workshop work on a new play.
"Her recent stage credits sit on either side of an interesting line. Some of the work is high-festival, scaffolded by industry: Do You Party? by Megan Rivkin, performed at the Vineyard Theater in August 2024 as part of the Samuel French Off-Off Broadway Festival, where the play was selected to the Top 30. Other pieces are smaller, harder to package - The Great Ignored by Finnegan Kruckemeyer at the Provincetown Playhouse, May 2024, programmed under New Plays for Young Audiences, and The Last Five Star Bowl America in America by Andrew Reid, directed by Benjamin Viertel, at The Chain Theatre in 2023."
